Well that's ok, then. Ego stroking our speciality (said in Wallace-like tones)! (It does look brilliant.)

That is going to be beautiful when finished as for the back no one will see mine
If you are looking for some one to help change you, look in the mirror

Lovely work though. How do you get your backs so neat?

I don't carry the thread over very many stitches and try to thread under others when I do, I use a very thin needle, a 28, makes it easy to do.
There are other little things I have discovered over the years but they are hard to describe
